As I was saying to James Blunt...
Beatrice Started conversation Dec 5, 2007
So I was driving home, listening to Chris Evans, and it was a special Womens Minute where you could ask James Blunt a question. Now I'm not a huge fan of his music, but he was fantastic on Top Gear this week, so I thought I'd ask him about that.
Got through, researcher took my details, called me back, got me to pull over and switch to the phone not the headset, and put me on standby, listening to the show.
So, Stuck in the Middle played, then Chris started chatting to James. And of course stole my thunder by asking him about Top Gear! Researcher comes back and says "quick quick, think of a different question!"
And that's how I ended up asking the stupid question about Beautiful. Sorry James!

Couldn't you just have called Chris Evans a cock?

I saw him on Top Gear too- was mightily impressed with his sense of humour and self depraction (sp?). Like you, i'm not a huge fan of his music, but he's risen 10 fold in my respectometer after Top gear

Kicking myslef now - I should have asked him about motorbikes. Or asked my standard "what question do you never get asked but wish you did?"

3 hours later I come up with the perfect question; he was good on Top gear wasn't he? And I even commented at the time that he had a future as a presenter.
So I should have asked him what sort of programme he'd like to present.
Heck I shoulda asked him what he wanted Santa to bring him!
I was tossing and turning at 3 am gnawing it this you know. Lame or what?

And who brought Chris Evans' dangly bits into my journal, for goodness sakes!

Perhaps he's reading your thread right now, Beatrice? http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F16034?thread=4835150 and the next time you go on a long run (or get a tat) you might bump into him!! Any repeats of Top Gear? Missed it!

To be honest Bea you didn't sound too flumaxed by having to change your question at late notice there wasn't that much time between Chris asking that question and Women's minute so well done. It was Beautiful. Sorry just had to be that corny to a fellow TOG.
